Izzy Stevenson knows what Libby Kennedy is about to do just by reading her expression. The Souhegan High School junior midfielders joke that they have twin-like telepathy on the lacrosse field. It’s a product of playing together since they were kindergartners and becoming best friends in the process.
After their Souhegan days are over, Stevenson and Kennedy will continue strengthening their chemistry in college as members of the Boston University women’s lacrosse team. “They don’t even need to talk,” said Sabers coach McKinley Curro Sbordone, who played at Souhegan and BU. “It’s innate for them at this point.
It is really cool that they get to continue that in the next phase at BU. ” Kennedy, an All-American last year, compared both players’ games to two puzzle pieces that fit together perfectly. Kennedy “is so driven to get to goal,” Stevenson said, and Stevenson, a prolific passer, knows how to set up her best friend to score.
